Re: Category 5 Katrina Winds to 175MPH

OUT OF NEW ORLEANS NWS......

SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT

...OUTER RAIN BANDS FROM HURRICANE KATRINA AFFECTING METRO
NEW ORLEANS AND THE SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA COAST...




If people have not left, this might speed them up..... storms are moving in the feeder band at 40-50 mph.... could have gust that high.... can't wait to see it reach NO in the next hour or so and see how the National media does with it.....most are live from that area now.

quick question..... does anybody know where the NO NWS office is located? if so do you think they will evacuate? What kind of area are they in? just was currious.
